The closer to 888is the 211. Its a relaxed taper. They do make straight cuts with high rise but I will say they are closer to iH 1955 than 888
-
Agree with @yannis, and was going to say the same: Samurai 511 is closest to the 777, but not particularly close. Nice cut though, and for a (somewhat) similar fit I'd suggest sizing up in the Samurai compared to the IH.
-
@m4xime. Any Samurai cut with 500, 0500, 5000 is usually a straight cut. You may find one with 888 kind of rise and a 634 leg. The 3000 is the widest cut they make. Its wider than anything IH currently offers.
-
@stitchdown.shell Nice. Just ordered the pink from Okayama in Medium. Hoping I’m not inbetween sizes!
-
@yannis - what’s the closest they do to the 555?
-
@Crispy-Heron. I think the 520 and the 211 will be the one's. The 211 is more relaxed than the 555 with a roomier thigh but still tapers. The 555 is unique in the sense that its fitted though the leg and knee but the leg opening is not that small. Look at the 520 thats the closet I know.
-
634 is wider than the 3000 in the waist and thigh, and 0.1mm narrower in the hem

There are variations in every run, but by the book, the 634 are wider in the waist and thigh, and the basically the same in the hem for a given size.I also have both 634 and 3000. Mine feel very similar, but if forced, I would have to say the 634 feel bigger. My 634 seat feels slightly more roomy and the hem feels wider.
-
Mine is a 3000vx maybe that makes a difference but is noticeably wider than my 634.

@stitchdown.shell damn! This color way is so sick!!
I actually prefer them to be unbrushed. I feel it makes them more wearable in a range of temps. UHFs can be too warm for me a lot of the time. Also the unbrushed makes that twill feel denim adjacent in some ways. Perhaps leading to better fade potential??
These are just my observations. Love these flannels though. @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot showed me the light. Now I want more, More, MORE!!! Ahhhh hahahaha
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot what is the largest size they make every place i looked they stop at 2xl. I need 25 inches p2p minimum.
-
@yannis I couldn’t say for certain, my man!
A quick look tells me there’s some XXXL listed at Canadian retailer Private & Co. Unfortunately, they don’t post measurements….
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot. Thanks man I will check them out
-
@Mizmazzle All excellent points. I tend to not wear flannels in warmer months so this is good news. @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot is the man and has shown me so many new brands and he really knows his stuff. Has helped me out a lot. Cheers.

I normally go 25 and as such 3XL in IH. My Samurai is 2XL. Something about the fit - yes its slim but seems to work all the same. Its probably the best cut of all my flannels.
Edit: That said the western ones come in a 3XL and are 25 according to the charts.
-
Is anyone already having experience with the "S510XX21OZII - 21oz CHO-KIWAMI Selvedge Denim"? How does this compare to the 634S 21 from IH? From the measurements, I see that the Samurai runs a bit wider. Does this extra bit of width give a boxy feeling?
-
@the246guy. They are similar. Generally watch the waist measurement as Samurai tends to run a little smaller in the waist for the same tag size. The thigh and knee in general should be a bit more spacious than a 634.
